No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I believe he was released because of terminal prostate cancer. He didn't have long to live anyway.

Possibly not, it may be a while before final confirmation.

I remember when he was first released there was a big stink because the diagnosing doctor was paid by the Libyans and Meghri never saw an oncolygist.

In other words it was looking like the Scots had been had.

I bet the Scottish Minister of Justice is breathing a sigh of relief.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

I bet the Libyans are lying.

The UK will fall for it, of course.

Yeah. thats the first thing I thought. Can we really depend on a muslim to tell the truth?
If the source is Libyan, then he is probably on his way to another country to train more killers.

So he's not dead? Or is he really dead? This "may be alive" could apply to every living creature on the planet - I've heard that he wasn't THAT close to death as the doctors claimed so he'd get released. He sure looked like he was feeling okay at his welcome home party his fellow terrrorists (i.e., the Libyan government) threw for him.
